Avast has introduced Scam Guardian, a free AI-powered tool designed to protect users from online scams, particularly targeting remote workers and consumers. This initiative comes in response to a 131% increase in AI-driven malware email attacks in 2025, as reported by Gen Threat Labs. The tool scans websites, messages, and links in real time to identify threats before they can cause harm.
